Psycho Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Not in any easy way that would be worthwhile. The only way would be to maintain two fields: one where the user types and a hidden field which actually holds the password. As the user types you would need to capture the character pressed, add it to the hidden password field and then add a '#' to the password "display" field. but, it will get complex very quickly when you consider users can slect the middle part of the text and enter chancters anywhere, eginning, middle or end. Plus, they can backspace or delete characters and cut and paste. Definitely not worth the trouble in my opinion.
